"Good Grief! Don't Quit Yer Whinin'!"
Teacher: Catherine Cheong
Good grief! No, it’s not just a whiny complaint out of Charlie Brown’s mouth. It is a declaration that grief and grieving are necessary and strengthening for the heart and soul of the Christ-follower. To be healthy members of the Kingdom of God, we have to grieve well, and we should aim to be safe havens where folks can grieve in our company. Let’s spend a few weeks to explore together: what could possibly be so good about grieving; how God’s Word provides guidance about grieving well; and how the Lord is so good to walk through grief-filled seasons with us.

God Glorified / My Story

Leaving a Legacy
Teacher: Grif Griffin
This five-week class will explore the principles and practicalities of thinking about your legacy:
“ A person's legacy is the enduring impact they leave on the world, encompassing their actions, values, relationships, and the memories they create. It's not just about material possessions or accomplishments, but rather the story of their life and the positive changes they inspire in others. Essentially, a legacy reflects the person they were and how they will be remembered. [Proverbs 13:22a]
Whether you're just starting to think about your legacy and future impact or already have plans in place, this class will help you consider how your resources can tell a story of faith, generosity, and purpose, and how "Planned Giving" is an excellent resource to assist you. Join us as we explore how to be wise stewards and leave a meaningful legacy for generations to come.
